About the Book
Tamaki, co-author of This One Summer, picks the best graphic pieces of the year.Book Synopsis
Jillian Tamaki, co-author of This One Summer, picks the best graphic pieces of the year. "The pieces I chose were those that stuck with me, represented something important about comics in this moment, and exemplified excellence of the craft. Surveying the final collection, I'm moved by the variety of individual approaches. There are so many ways to make us care about little marks on a page."--Jillian Tamaki, from the introduction The Best American Comics 2019 showcases the work of established and up-and-coming artists, collecting work found in the pages of graphic novels, comic books, periodicals, zines, online, in galleries, and more, highlighting the kaleidoscopic diversity of the comics form today. Featuring Vera Brosgol, Eleanor Davis, Nick Drnaso, Margot Ferrick, Ben Passmore, John Porcellino, Joe Sacco, Lauren Weinstein, Lale Westvind, and others.Review Quotes
"Series editor Kartalopoulos taps Tamaki (They Say Blue, 2018, etc.) to help curate the 2019 edition of this annual collection of exceptional graphic storytelling...Eleanor Davis' incisive 'Hurt or Fuck' contemplates art and human need on an allegorical, visceral level in what could almost be a two-actor stage play. Erik Nebel's 'Why Don't We Come Together' ingeniously explores the possibilities of a rigid format--repeating but shifting shapes and colors, figures and patterns play across a set of equal-sized panels stacked into a grid, clicking through simple, whimsical stories like a filmstrip of thesis, antithesis, and synthesis...It's called 'best' for a reason."--Kirkus --
